Biography
Aiguo Li is a Senior Bioinformatician in Neuro-Oncology Branch, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health. Her research interests include glioma tumor biomarker identification and prognostic studies, and tumor molecular and functional classification. The goals of her research are to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms of glioma tumorigenesis and its progression; and developing novel therapeutic approaches for curing glioma patients. In the past, she has established a glioma molecular classification model containing six sub-types and further translated this model into a clinically useful tool – GliomaPredict, which allows clinicians and researchers to assign new patients to the existing sub-types. The focus of her research is, currently, on understanding the glioma tumor’s heterogeneity and infiltration mechanism by integrative analysis of multi-dimensional high throughput data of glioma patients and glioma stem cell lines.
